January 2012:
A work session is scheduled Wednesday, February 8. The museum/library will open at 1:00 p.m. If you want to further your genealogy research, come join us.

MUSEUM/LIBRARY SCHEDULE:
We will be open by appointment this fall/winter season. If we schedule open days, the date and time will be posted here.
Come meet the "Stranger Among Us", a new book published by the Blackford County Historical Society. The book is a compilation of original stories of immigrants who lived and worked here during the oil and gas days. America was truly a "Melting Pot", as our small community proves.
These books can be purchased in hardback or softback from BCHS. Here is a link for an order form that can be downloaded for print. The books can also be purchased on the internet at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
We have some excess High School Year Books for sale. Condition good to not-so-good. Price subject to condition.
